someone told moi Timberland shoes are made to last forever

[Calis_Yoda]

timberland outlet store at IMM got offer, 50% for both pairs if you buy 2 shoes

What dates are the offer? Any pictures or links?

 

[ninjaghost]

Timbaland can?

The boat shoes are bad. For a "deck shoe" the soles are non existent. During rainy season, I slipped quite a few times.

Actually, the saf boots from 90s also can last very very long. Duno why mindef changed them to some glued-on boots

No No, 1-2 years max.

so those glued soles are no difference from other sport shoes i guess? i suppose stitched soles will be far more lasting?

wow... that's really lousy

my guess is glued soles cheaper

 

[articland05]

def not forever

but a few years should be ok but still depends on usage

hmm if can last 8-10yrs is excellent liao

 

[Calis_Yoda]

Did the quality drop?

yes need stitched to really last.

but timberland must be careful some of the "stitching" is decoration only. looks like stitched but actually is glued also.

Nothing last forever
Even cold November rain

I think their quality has declined. Ban this brand already.

issit true?
best the superficial scratches and stains, will it last forever?

If the shoe last forever, then the shoe maker can eat grass. If Macbook and iPhone can last forever, then Apple can eat grass. Companies will want you to keep returning to buy their stuff. Planned obsolescence describes the practice of designing products to break quickly or become obsolete in the short to mid-term. The general idea behind this is to encourage sales of new products and upgrades.

Anything you use will go through wear and tear
Their signature premium boots maybe better than their other products also. Not all their shoes are equal, those cheaper ones are cheaper for a reason
